hello,

i have recently bough a sonos arc and 2 sonos Era 100 for my living room and kitchen.

i have an open area with the kitchen and the living room.

the area of the living room (about 45 sqm) has the TV with the sonos ARC and 2 sonos era 100.

 

I would like to improve the whole room (living room+kitchen) but i don´t know what is the best option.

may be +2 Era100 in the  area of the kitchen?

may be +1 sonos five in the area of the kitchen????

I don´t have for the moment a sub, and i´m not thinking in one, because the sound is great only with the ARC + 2ERA100.

and i don´t have them as surround, may be it´s also a mistake.

i use it more for music than for films.

 

thanks in advance for your ideas !!

I would recommend another speaker for the kitchen area even though its an open layout. The Era 100 would be a good choice and if more sound coverage is needed, add a second 100.

I have a open living/dining layout. and I have the Arc, Sub and surrounds in the living room, but just a single Play 1 in the dining room for a better balance between the rooms. You end up turning the other room up too loud without this configuration IMO.

thanks a lot for your comments,

i thought it was better at least 2 ERA100 (as stereo) , but as you say i can try with one and then see if i need the other one. So , i won´t consider a sonos five or ERA300.

 

thanks!!!!!
